5 Weight Loss Dilemmas

If you are board with your food, you are eating the wrong food. Don’t stick with any diet if you don’t like the food. Here is how to enjoy healthy eating and stop those craving.

With careful planning, you can have chocolate, ice cream, or any other high-calorie, high fat treat, and still lose weight. The key is to eat what you want, and mind the portions.

Think of your diet strategy as fueling your body. Eating frequently in small amounts throughout the day and evening helps avoid the hunger that leads to temptation.

If you have been in a holding pattern for more than two weeks, learn to play tennis or any other activity that you have never tried before. Doing the same type of exercise day after day, can actually decrease the number of calories you burn. Your muscles become efficient so they don’t have to work as hard.

Instead, focus on the increased energy you now have, how easy it is to race up a flight of stairs, the way your favorite skirt no longer digs into your tummy, or the decrease in your blood pressure. What helped you to lose the first 10, 30, or even 50 pounds, so you may need to make some adjustments: exercise a bit more or eat a little differently. Including more fruit, salads, vegetables, and vegetable-based soups at lunch, dinner, and snack time can help you fill up on fewer calories while dropping pounds.

Going from a couch potato-or even an occasional exerciser-to walking, jogging or cycling almost daily is a big commitment.

o    Learn to crawl

If your primary form of exercise has been doing laps around the grocery aisles once a week, it is unrealistic to expect yourself to power walk an hour a day.

Marathon runners don’t have more time than you, but they manage to cram workouts. They do something that you can too: make exercise a priority, a nonnegotiable part of your life. Here is how.

o    Pen it in

Take a look at your day planner and decide where you have got some extra time-even 10 minutes is a start. If every day is crammed, decide what can go. Be ruthless: Do you really need to socialize at every lunch hours? Or sleep in as late as possible every day?

o    Get moving

Schedule your workout for first thing in the morning. We know that people who exercise earlier in the day are more likely to be regular exercisers, we suspect that is because the later in the day you schedule it, the more likely it is that things will come up to prevent you from doing it.

o    Do two things at once

People look opportunities to combine physical activity with other necessary evils. For instance, many now have ‘active meetings’ at work where, instead of sitting around a conference table they take a walk while addressing routine office issues.
